Tatoeba update (February 14th, 2015)

User interface

On pages with pagination, such as the Wall, you can navigate to the previous or next page with [Ctrl + →] or [Ctrl + ← ]. Note: on Mac it's [Ctrl + Shift + arrow key].

The "Browse" item in the top menu does not link to a random sentence anymore. We have added instead a sub-item ("Random sentence") for this purpose. This should make the sub-menu accessible for most people using a mobile device.

The icon that indicates whether a Chinese sentence is written with simplified or traditional characters has been restored. This icon has also been added for Cantonese and Shanghainese.

We fixed an issue where CJK characters were not displayed with the correct glyph.

Users can deleted their own sentences

Anyone can now delete their own sentence, if (and only if) it doesn't have any translation.
You will not need to ask a corpus maintainer to delete your sentences anymore, when you have added a sentence by mistake.

Other

When a sentence is tagged 'OK', the tag is removed
when the sentence is modified. Note: if you are editing a sentence from
the sentence's page, you may notice that the tag remains even after you
have edited it. This is normal. You will need to refresh the page to
see it disappear.

In some situations, logging in
systematically redirects to the homepage. We changed the redirection to
lead instead to the last page viewed before attempting to log in.
